Wild swans

Lade - mild, cloudy, sw 3 - No real change on the local patch across the weekend apart from the addition of a Shelduck on south lake yesterday and three Mediterranean Gulls on north lake.
Elsewhere, the Bewick`s Swan flock of 40 birds was still present in the Midley fields while the two Whoopers were relocated today by NB in an oil-seed rape field along Hook`s Wall. Around the reserve the drake Smew was on Tanner`s pool today while the usual flocks of Lapwings, Golden Plovers and ducks were on the fields nearby. Two visits to the point over the weekend to check the sea revealed the usual common seabirds.
